#67 clocking in
Congratulations to everyone who reached their targets. I have not made it. I was targeting 65kg and only made it to 66.4 kg. I think I was a bit ambitious considering the major family events and holidays that have studded the recent weeks. But the trend is still downward and I think that having that Easter target in sight has kept me focused.
Happy Easter to you all!
#27 checking in with the final weigh-in. Delighted to report a total loss of 12lbs over the Easter Challenge. Very happy with that. Thanks to PennyForThem for setting it up, and well done to everyone else on the Challenge.

Happy Easter to all - enjoy your Chocolate. :bunny: :chick:
Well Easter bunnies and bilbies.... how did you all do?

I have dropped to a steady 144lbs (though I did see 143 yesterday!!) and am very pleased with the result. The slight gain was probably due to the bad influence of @silverdarling who mentioned small bars of Moser Roth chocolate!! Of course, she didn't force me to eat it, but in the interest of quality control I ate two bars... yes, you read that right, two! However, I seem to be having my revenge on her with my chilli jam with cheese :grin: :grin:

I am so glad that this Easter challenge seems to have been a success, but we also need someone to 'step up to the plate' to run the next. Someone mentioned a bikini challenge. I won't be wearing one, for fear of frightening small children, but a challenge seems to keep us motivated.
Hi @PennyForthem! Member number 8 here ...

Just to say my goal was 11.3 and today I'm 11.5, so although I only lost 3lbs on the Easter Challenge rather than 5lbs hoped for, I'm feeling OK about it. :cool:

I think I should be on target to reach 11.3 by May 5th which is my Fastiversary, so fingers crossed as that would be one and a half stone down in a year. :grin:

Thanks again for running the challenge and keeping us all on our toes!! Now let's enjoy a nice Easter weekend (I'm putting off my Monday fast until Tuesday).
:heart: :victory: :clover: :heart: :victory: :clover:
:shock: :shock: Hi @PennyForthem didn't make my Easter goal or xmas goal or valentine goal either!!!
OH well I am consistent at least :lol:
no bikini for me either only just dusted off my cozy and that's not a pretty site. :shock:

Easter goal 95kgs today's weigh-in = 96*5kgs.
close but unfortunately 300grams up on last week
@Sue.Q that's still good going, and 300g isn't much in the scheme of things - back to it next week though, will be joining you in Low Carbers Tent
#86 checking in with success!!

Weighing in at 59.95kg today so just snuck in under 60kg to make my target weight!! :grin:

Very very happy right now and thanks for setting up the challenge!

Happy Easter everyone :heart:
susbut65 #52 Having reported weekly weigh ins on a Friday the end of our Easter challenge will be no different especially as I have no access to scales tomorrow as I am away for the weekend with OH. :oops: Start of challenge 64K (10st 1lb)
FRI 18 APRIL 61.5K (9st 10lb)
YAY.....5lb LOST :victory:
NOW UNDER 10st and UK8 TOP UK8-10 BOTTOM
(SADLY what little boobies had now even smaller........TEEN BRAS HERE I COME :confused: :frown: :razz:)
Good Morning Pennyforthem and all Easter Challengers. Prunella #58 here reporting a loss for the challenge of ....... 9 pounds exactly. A pound short of my 10 pound target, meaning I still have 4 pounds to lose before mid-May. Hmmmm... looking a bit unlikely.

Progress tracker shows my BMI is still in 'overweight' at 25.01

What does worry me is that in the last fortnight I've stuck to the rule rigidly and net loss is only 4 ounces, so maintaining (when I get there) is going to be a challenge in itself. But I'll keep trying.

Off to toast a hot cross bun! :smile:

Perhaps we should have a Halloween challenge? Would suit those in the Southern Hemisphere, plus you (we) could still wear a bikini and go trick or treating!!!!
Final check in from #11. Trend weight is 66.2kg so I have exceeded the Easter challenge by 300g, with a total loss during the challenge of 2.3kg. :grin: Very pleased with that and I now have just 1.2 kg to go to reach maintenance.
Good morning no 64# checking in

Congratulations to everyone. Another happy Easter bunny :bunny: hopping in with 7.8 lb loss (target 5 lbs) - I'm delighted with that! (Started at 140 and now 132.2)

Thanks very much @PennyForthem for running the challenge :like: I loved it! Wishing everyone a happy Easter holiday, now where did I put those treats :grin:

Lizbean x
Congrats to my buddy @spanner I'm delighted for you :heart:
I end the challenge on 70.5kgs having started on 72.8kgs so that's all good.

Happy Easter with hugs to all :0)
More excellent results!!

I think our next challenge should be 'The longest/shortest day challenge' for 21 June. Am happy to do it, but am more than happy for someone else to take over a challenge of their own x
^ So if it were to start tomorrow, it would be a 9 week challenge. Sounds good.
